Create a new API key

client.APIKeys.New(ctx, body) (*APIKey, error)
POST/v1/api_keys

Creates a new API key in the workspace.

ParametersExpand Collapse
body APIKeyNewParams
Metadata param.Field[CreateResourceMetadata]

CreateResourceMetadata contains the user-provided fields for creating a workspace-scoped resource. Read-only fields (id, account_id, workspace_id, profile_id, created_at) are excluded since they are set by the server.

Spec param.Field[APIKeySpec]

APIKeySpec contains the API Key-specific fields

ReturnsExpand Collapse
type APIKey struct{…}

APIKey represents a workspace-scoped API key. Each API key belongs to exactly one workspace, ensuring workspace isolation. Authentication is handled via Cadenya-issued JWTs signed with the key's own signing secret.

Standard metadata for persistent, named resources (e.g., agents, tools, prompts)

ID string

Unique identifier for the resource (prefixed ULID, e.g., "agent_01HXK...")

AccountID string

Account this resource belongs to for multi-tenant isolation (prefixed ULID)

CreatedAt Time

Timestamp when this resource was created

formatdate-time
Name string

Human-readable name for the resource (e.g., "Customer Support Agent", "Email Tool") Required for resources that users interact with directly

ProfileID string

ID of the actor (user or service account) that created this resource

WorkspaceID string

Workspace this resource belongs to for organizational grouping (prefixed ULID)

ExternalID stringoptional

External ID for the resource (e.g., a workflow ID from an external system)

Labels map[string, string]optional

Arbitrary key-value pairs for categorization and filtering Examples: {"environment": "production", "team": "platform", "version": "v2"}

APIKeySpec contains the API Key-specific fields

Token stringoptional

The actual token value (only returned on creation and rotation, read-only)

Description stringoptional

Description of what this API Key is used for

Info APIKeyInfooptional
CreatedBy Profileoptional

Profile represents a human user at the account level. Profiles are account-scoped resources that can be associated with multiple workspaces through the Actor model. Authentication for profiles is handled via SSO/OAuth (WorkOS).

AccountResourceMetadata is used to represent a resource that is associated to an account but not to a workspace.

ID string

Unique identifier for the resource (prefixed ULID, e.g., "apikey_01HXK...")

AccountID string

Account this resource belongs to for multi-tenant isolation (prefixed ULID)

Name string

Human-readable name for the resource (e.g., "Customer Support Agent", "Email Tool") Required for resources that users interact with directly

ProfileID string
ExternalID stringoptional

External ID for the resource (e.g., a workflow ID from an external system)

Labels map[string, string]optional

Arbitrary key-value pairs for categorization and filtering Examples: {"environment": "production", "team": "platform", "version": "v2"}

ProfileSpec contains the profile-specific fields

Type ProfileSpecType

Type is the type of profile. User's are humans, API keys are computers. You know the deal.

formatenum
One of the following:
const ProfileSpecTypeProfileTypeUser ProfileSpecType = "PROFILE_TYPE_USER"
const ProfileSpecTypeProfileTypeAPIKey ProfileSpecType = "PROFILE_TYPE_API_KEY"
const ProfileSpecTypeProfileTypeSystem ProfileSpecType = "PROFILE_TYPE_SYSTEM"
Email stringoptional

Email address of the user (required, unique per account)

Name stringoptional

Display name for the user (e.g., "Bobby Tables")
